Based around the core curriculum for specialist trainees, Oxford Case Histories in Anaesthesia contains over 60 clinical cases compiled by expert consultants. The cases comprehensively cover all sub-specialties and a broad range of variations that occur in normal and abnormal physiology, pharmacology and pathology, as well as patient age. The cases have been selected with reference to the revised Curriculum for a Certificate of Completion of Training in Anaesthesia set by the Royal College of Anaesthetists. Each case begins with clear learning outcomes and is mapped to the CCT matrix, greatly aiding those revising for the Final FRCA examination. The cases are presented with a background to the subject area, and a summary of the history and examination findings with relevant investigation results. This is followed by several questions on clinically important aspects of the case with answers and detailed discussion, particularly of the differential management options. Further reading at the end of each case aids future study.Less

The case format highlights key issues in presenting features, diagnosis, management, and prevention, and lends itself well to cases of infection. Those chosen reflect both common and important pathogens/infections, and less frequent but important conditions in terms of the outcome or the risk of onward spread. The cases are divided according to the main organ systems, such as respiratory and gastrointestinal, with a section for systemic infections and miscellaneous for those cases that do not neatly fit into any category. The book focuses on ensuring that the reader is aware of how to confirm a diagnosis rapidly, with references throughout to evolving laboratory techniques, provides advice on therapy, discusses recent epidemiological features, and addresses areas where there is some controversy. A combination of clinical photographs, imaging, laboratory illustrations, tables, and figures are included to highlight key points or features. Further reading provides information on aspects where there are ongoing developments. For the trainee in clinical microbiology and infection, it is not possible to cover all aspects of any curriculum in this format, and they are recommended to consult other sources. However, the cases presented will assist both them and their trainers in keeping abreast of recent developments and reminding them of key principles.Less
